After De Bruyne scored the equalizing goal, he also made a wonderful pass, but Drogba's header also hit the goal post and missed the opportunity to take the lead.
Drogba has not been very good at scoring goals recently and has missed goals many times.
The referee blew the whistle to end the game. In the end, the two sides shook hands and settled in a 2-2 score.
On the sidelines of the court, Yunsheng and Pellegrini shook hands politely. It could be seen from their expressions that they were both very dissatisfied with the game.
"Coach Yunsheng, it's really not easy for you to equalize the score at the last moment. It's admirable. The three points we got turned into one point."
"Gong Pei, we had a chance to win, but we were not lucky today. I will wait for you at the Riazor Stadium in the next game. Let's have another good game!"
Yunsheng turned around and walked towards his players, while Pellegrini also walked towards the Manchester City players.
After walking a few steps, he happened to be walking opposite Riquelme.
The two still didn't say anything, they just nodded to each other and stopped talking.
In fact, this is already rare for Riquelme.
Kaka on the side whispered: "For adults, those past events that were once unbearable will still hurt even if they are brought up again many years later. Even if you can still smile, that is not forgiveness, but forgiveness. Come on..."
Pellegrini failed to win against Riquelme again, maybe this is fate.
They did not win their first victory in the European competition, but after returning to the league, Depor still maintained a winning streak.
It is worth mentioning that Depor scored 4-0 in the next two consecutive league games. The defense led by Zhang Linpeng continued to keep zero blocks, and Wu Lei's two hat tricks made him top the scorer list, and even Defeating Messi and Ronaldo, this is an extremely dazzling achievement for him.
Yun Sheng was quite emotional. If these two Chinese players had been on the court during the game against Manchester City, the team might not have conceded two goals, let alone the weak offensive attack.
With expectations for the Champions League group stage, on October 2, Depor ushered in the second game of the group stage, an away game against Paris.
Yun Sheng was very moved when he visited the Parc des Princes again after three years.
When I was coaching in Monaco, I came here as a guest many times and met with Paris Saint-Germain in the league and cup. At that time, both Monaco and Paris were in a period of renaissance. Monaco had Yunsheng, but Paris had no wealthy financial backers. In those years, Paris was crushed by Monaco.
Unexpectedly, after three years in Hedong and three years in Hexi, Monaco returned after being relegated, while PSG stood out in Ligue 1, trying to defend the domestic double crown and compete for the Champions League championship. It is really unexpected.
Today's Paris starting lineup is also very unfamiliar to Yun Sheng, completely different from the original team.
4-3-3 formation: goalkeeper Siligu, four defenders are Maxwell, Thiago Silva, Alex and Van der Wiel, three midfielders are Motta, Verratti and Matuidi , the three forwards are Ibrahimovic, Cavani and Lavezzi. Also sitting on the bench are Pastore, Lucas Jr., Mene, Rabiot, Marquinhos and other young rookies.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Paris is asked to field two top lineups, there will be absolutely no problem!
However, even though the Paris player Yun Sheng is no longer familiar with him, the Paris coach is an old acquaintance of Yun Sheng.
When coaching Monaco in the 2008-2009 season, Bordeaux was one of Monaco's biggest competitors, and their coach Blanco at the time had many confrontations with Yunsheng.
Unexpectedly, after going around in circles, Yun Sheng would see Blanc again standing in front of the Paris coach's bench. What a fate.
"Hello, Coach Blanco, we haven't seen you for a long time."
Blanc, who is a super legendary star in the history of the French team and has an outstanding coaching experience, smiled in front of Yunsheng: "Coach Yunsheng, when we first played against each other, you were just a rookie who won the Bundesliga double championship. I didn’t expect that now you are one of the best coaches in the world, which is admirable.”
"The fact that you were chosen by Paris Saint-Germain also proves your strength. It seems that you have a great chance of defending the domestic double crown this season."
"Of course, even your old club can't pose a threat to us. But defending the domestic double is not enough. It would be great if we can bring the Champions League back to Paris."
"This season won't work. I've already booked the Champions League."
"Oh? That's so interesting. Let's have a good game today, but Paris is not the same Bordeaux it was back then."
"The current Depor lineup is stronger than the original Monaco."
"In that case, let's meet on the field!"
Deportivo still has a 4-3-2-1 formation today: goalkeeper Navas, defenders from left to right are Balzaretti, Zhang Linpeng, Lucio and Maicon, and the three midfielders are Gatto from left to right. Suo, Pogba and Kaká, the two shadow forwards are Wu Lei and Irving, and the center Drogba.
The only personnel change was that Riquelme had a slight ankle injury. Yun Sheng did not bring him to Paris to let him fully rest.
After much thought, Yunsheng considered letting Pogba start.
In recent times, several young players in Depor's team have performed very well, and they have grown extremely fast on the court and on the training ground. Surrounded by a group of world-class stars, Ronaldo, De Bruyne, and Lukaku are making rapid progress. They are already talented, and now they are even more powerful.
Among these players, Pogba should improve faster.
In terms of individual skills, Ronaldo and De Bruyne may have their own strengths, but in terms of midfield organizational talent, Pogba is definitely at the top level. At first, when he first came to Deportivo, he was a little arrogant, but after being around Riquelme, Gattuso and other big players, he was completely convinced and was willing to devote himself to training and improvement. The arrival of Kaka this season has made Pogba feel the gap between him and the world's top stars.
In this game, Yunsheng needed a slightly deeper midfielder, and in the end he asked Pogba to replace Riquelme.
Not long after the opening, Pogba's pass caused a danger to the Paris goal, and Drogba's powerful volley slipped past the goal again.
Although he missed the goal opportunity, Pogba's pass won the applause of Depor fans at the scene. The timing and speed of the pass just now seemed to have been deduced by a super computer. Let alone Drogba, it is estimated that even Zimbabwe's forward can receive the ball.
This is Pogba's first Champions League game after joining Deportivo, and he is looking forward to appearing in front of all his fellow Frenchmen.
In the 15th minute of the game, his chance finally came...
